Between working, fishing, bait collecting/maintaining I have little time to enter single fish as and when they come in. Since your submission no other entrys where made until Sunday. I got in from fishing the weekend last night at half 11 and have only just got in from work and sorting my bait out. Your more than welcome to take over the competition which actually takes more time running/constantly updating than obviously you and most others think. If not the table will be updated when I find time and have enough entries for me to do a few in one go.

ShaunI don't mean to sound like I'm trying to knock you. I completely understand what it's like to constantly be up the wall with stuff, never having a minute to yourself. I personally think this format you have set for this seasons competition is the best I can remember.

It's just that from a competitors point of view, taking part in a contest which lasts for 12 long months, there can sometimes be a fine line between having fun along the way and completely loosing interest. IMHO there is nothing like seeing a few more fish appearing on the board on a regular basis to help boost enthusiasm levels and keep peoples interest up.

If you are really serious about handing the running of this competition over to someone else then I think it's a real shame. As I've said, I think this years comp is the best I can remember. However, if you would like some assistance with admin and the like then please let me know as I for one would be willing to help out wherever I can.

Hi Shaun, Not too bothered if you say no, but I submitted a report (13 Aug) with pictures of a Smoothy that came in at 9lb 3oz, and forgot to notify you. Am I too late for the specimen hunt.Cheers, Mike.
